NASL family Mandriva Local Security Checks NASL id MANDRAKE_MDKSA-2005-235.NASL description Multiple vulnerabilities in the Linux 2.6 kernel have been discovered and corrected in this update : A stack-based buffer overflow in the sendmsg function call in versions prior to 2.6.13.1 allow local users to execute arbitrary code by calling sendmsg and modifying the message contents in another thread (CVE-2005-2490). The raw_sendmsg function in versions prior to 2.6.13.1 allow local users to cause a DoS (change hardware state) or read from arbitrary memory via crafted input (CVE-2005-2492). The ipt_recent module in versions prior to 2.6.12 does not properly perform certain tests when the jiffies value is greater than LONG_MAX, which can cause ipt_recent netfilter rules to block too early (CVE-2005-2873). Multiple vulnerabilities in versions prior to 2.6.13.2 allow local users to cause a DoS (oops from null dereference) via fput in a 32bit ioctl on 64-bit x86 systems or sockfd_put in the 32-bit routing_ioctl function on 64-bit systems (CVE-2005-3044). Versions 2.6.8 to 2.6.14-rc2 allow local users to cause a DoS (oops) via a userspace process that issues a USB Request Block (URB) to a USB device and terminates before the URB is finished, which leads to a stale pointer reference (CVE-2005-3055). drm.c in version 2.6.13 and earlier creates a debug file in sysfs with world-readable and world-writable permissions, allowing local users to enable DRM debugging and obtain sensitive information (CVE-2005-3179). The Orinoco driver in 2.6.13 and earlier does not properly clear memory from a previously used packet whose length is increased, allowing remote attackers to obtain sensitive information (CVE-2005-3180). Kernels 2.6.13 and earlier, when CONFIG_AUDITSYSCALL is enabled, use an incorrect function to free names_cache memory, preventing the memory from being tracked by AUDITSYSCALL code and leading to a memory leak (CVE-2005-3181). The VT implementation in version 2.6.12 allows local users to use certain IOCTLs on terminals of other users and gain privileges (CVE-2005-3257). A race condition in ip_vs_conn_flush in versions prior to 2.6.13, when running on SMP systems, allows local users to cause a DoS (null dereference) by causing a connection timer to expire while the connection table is being flushed before the appropriate lock is acquired (CVE-2005-3274). The provided packages are patched to fix these vulnerabilities. All users are encouraged to upgrade to these updated kernels.

NASL family Mandriva Local Security Checks NASL id MANDRAKE_MDKSA-2005-220.NASL description Multiple vulnerabilities in the Linux 2.6 kernel have been discovered and corrected in this update: The kernel on x86_64 platforms does not use a guard page for the 47-bit address page to protect against an AMD K8 bug which allows a local user to cause a DoS (CVE-2005-1764). The KEYCTL_JOIN_SESSION_KEYRING operation in versions prior to 2.6.12.5 contains an error path that does not properly release the session management semaphore, which allows local users or remote attackers to cause a DoS (semaphore hang) via a new session keyring with an empty name string, a long name string, the key quota reached, or ENOMEM (CVE-2005-2098). Kernels prior to 2.6.12.5 do not properly destroy a keyring that is not instantiated properly, allowing a local user or remote attacker to cause a DoS (oops) via a keyring with a payload that is not empty (CVE-2005-2099). An array index overflow in the xfrm_sk_policy_insert function in xfrm_user.c allows local users to cause a DoS (oops or deadlock) and possibly execute arbitrary code (CVE-2005-2456). The zisofs driver in versions prior to 2.6.12.5 allows local users and remove attackers to cause a DoS (crash) via a crafted compressed ISO filesystem (CVE-2005-2457). inflate.c in the zlib routines in versions prior to 2.6.12.5 allow remove attackers to cause a DoS (crash) via a compressed file with 'improper tables' (CVE-2005-2458). The huft_build function in inflate.c in the zlib routines in versions prior to 2.6.12.5 returns the wrong value, allowing remote attackers to cause a DoS (crash) via a certain compressed file that leads to a NULL pointer dereference (CVE-2005-2459). A stack-based buffer overflow in the sendmsg function call in versions prior to 2.6.13.1 allow local users to execute arbitrary code by calling sendmsg and modifying the message contents in another thread (CVE-2005-2490). The raw_sendmsg function in versions prior to 2.6.13.1 allow local users to cause a DoS (change hardware state) or read from arbitrary memory via crafted input (CVE-2005-2492). A memory leak in the seq_file implementation in the SCSI procfs interface (sg.c) in 2.6.13 and earlier allows a local user to cause a DoS (memory consumption) via certain repeated reads from /proc/scsi/gs/devices file which is not properly handled when the next() interator returns NULL or an error (CVE-2005-2800). The ipt_recent module in versions prior to 2.6.12 when running on 64bit processors allows remote attackers to cause a DoS (kernel panic) via certain attacks such as SSH brute force (CVE-2005-2872). The ipt_recent module in versions prior to 2.6.12 does not properly perform certain tests when the jiffies value is greater than LONG_MAX, which can cause ipt_recent netfilter rules to block too early (CVE-2005-2873). Multiple vulnerabilities in versions prior to 2.6.13.2 allow local users to cause a DoS (oops from NULL dereference) via fput in a 32bit ioctl on 64-bit x86 systems or sockfd_put in the 32-bit routing_ioctl function on 64-bit systems (CVE-2005-3044). The sys_set_mempolicy function in mempolicy.c allows local users to cause a DoS via a negative first argument (CVE-2005-3053). Versions 2.6.8 to 2.6.14-rc2 allow local users to cause a DoS (oops) via a userspace process that issues a USB Request Block (URB) to a USB device and terminates before the URB is finished, which leads to a stale pointer reference (CVE-2005-3055). drm.c in version 2.6.13 and earlier creates a debug file in sysfs with world-readable and world-writable permissions, allowing local users to enable DRM debugging and obtain sensitive information (CVE-2005-3179). The Orinoco driver in 2.6.13 and earlier does not properly clear memory from a previously used packet whose length is increased, allowing remote attackers to obtain sensitive information (CVE-2005-3180). Kernels 2.6.13 and earlier, when CONFIG_AUDITSYSCALL is enabled, use an incorrect function to free names_cache memory, preventing the memory from being tracked by AUDITSYSCALL code and leading to a memory leak (CVE-2005-3181). The VT implementation in version 2.6.12 allows local users to use certain IOCTLs on terminals of other users and gain privileges (CVE-2005-3257). Exec does not properly clear posix-timers in multi-threaded environments, which result in a resource leak and could allow a large number of multiple local users to cause a DoS by using more posix- timers than specified by the quota for a single user (CVE-2005-3271). The rose_rt_ioctl function rose_route.c in versions prior to 2.6.12 does not properly verify the ndigis argument for a new route, allowing an attacker to trigger array out-of-bounds errors with a large number of digipeats (CVE-2005-3273). A race condition in ip_vs_conn_flush in versions prior to 2.6.13, when running on SMP systems, allows local users to cause a DoS (NULL dereference) by causing a connection timer to expire while the connection table is being flushed before the appropriate lock is acquired (CVE-2005-3274). The NAT code in versions prior to 2.6.13 incorrectly declares a variable to be static, allowing remote attackers to cause a DoS (memory corruption) by causing two packets for the same protocol to be NATed at the same time (CVE-2005-3275). The sys_get_thread_area function in process.c in versions prior to 2.6.12.4 and 2.6.13 does not clear a data structure before copying it to userspace, which may allow a user process to obtain sensitive information (CVE-2005-3276).

The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems : - CVE-2004-2302 A race condition in the sysfs filesystem allows local users to read kernel memory and cause a denial of service (crash). - CVE-2005-0756 Alexander Nyberg discovered that the ptrace() system call does not properly verify addresses on the amd64 architecture which can be exploited by a local attacker to crash the kernel. - CVE-2005-0757 A problem in the offset handling in the xattr file system code for ext3 has been discovered that may allow users on 64-bit systems that have access to an ext3 filesystem with extended attributes to cause the kernel to crash. - CVE-2005-1265 Chris Wright discovered that the mmap() function could create illegal memory maps that could be exploited by a local user to crash the kernel or potentially execute arbitrary code. - CVE-2005-1761 A vulnerability on the IA-64 architecture can lead local attackers to overwrite kernel memory and crash the kernel. - CVE-2005-1762 A vulnerability has been discovered in the ptrace() system call on the amd64 architecture that allows a local attacker to cause the kernel to crash. - CVE-2005-1763 A buffer overflow in the ptrace system call for 64-bit architectures allows local users to write bytes into arbitrary kernel memory. - CVE-2005-1765 Zou Nan Hai has discovered that a local user could cause the kernel to hang on the amd64 architecture after invoking syscall() with specially crafted arguments. - CVE-2005-1767 A vulnerability has been discovered in the stack segment fault handler that could allow a local attacker to cause a stack exception that will lead the kernel to crash under certain circumstances. - CVE-2005-2456 Balazs Scheidler discovered that a local attacker could call setsockopt() with an invalid xfrm_user policy message which would cause the kernel to write beyond the boundaries of an array and crash. - CVE-2005-2458 Vladimir Volovich discovered a bug in the zlib routines which are also present in the Linux kernel and allows remote attackers to crash the kernel. - CVE-2005-2459 Another vulnerability has been discovered in the zlib routines which are also present in the Linux kernel and allows remote attackers to crash the kernel. - CVE-2005-2548 Peter Sandstrom noticed that snmpwalk from a remote host could cause a denial of service (kernel oops from null dereference) via certain UDP packets that lead to a function call with the wrong argument. - CVE-2005-2801 Andreas Gruenbacher discovered a bug in the ext2 and ext3 file systems. When data areas are to be shared among two inodes not all information were compared for equality, which could expose wrong ACLs for files. - CVE-2005-2872 Chad Walstrom discovered that the ipt_recent kernel module on 64-bit processors such as AMD64 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (kernel panic) via certain attacks such as SSH brute force. - CVE-2005-3105 The mprotect code on Itanium IA-64 Montecito processors does not properly maintain cache coherency as required by the architecture, which allows local users to cause a denial of service and possibly corrupt data by modifying PTE protections. - CVE-2005-3106 A race condition in the thread management may allow local users to cause a denial of service (deadlock) when threads are sharing memory and waiting for a thread that has just performed an exec. - CVE-2005-3107 When one thread is tracing another thread that shares the same memory map a local user could cause a denial of service (deadlock) by forcing a core dump when the traced thread is in the TASK_TRACED state. - CVE-2005-3108 A bug in the ioremap() system call has been discovered on the amd64 architecture that could allow local users to cause a denial of service or an information leak when performing a lookup of a non-existent memory page. - CVE-2005-3109 The HFS and HFS+ (hfsplus) modules allow local attackers to cause a denial of service (oops) by using hfsplus to mount a filesystem that is not hfsplus. - CVE-2005-3110 A race condition in the ebtables netfilter module on an SMP system running under high load may allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash). - CVE-2005-3271 Roland McGrath discovered that exec() does not properly clear posix-timers in multi-threaded environments, which results in a resource leak and could allow a large number of multiple local users to cause a denial of service by using more posix-timers than specified by the quota for a single user. - CVE-2005-3272 The kernel allows remote attackers to poison the bridge forwarding table using frames that have already been dropped by filtering, which can cause the bridge to forward spoofed packets. - CVE-2005-3273 The ioctl for the packet radio ROSE protocol does not properly verify the arguments when setting a new router, which allows attackers to trigger out-of-bounds errors. - CVE-2005-3274 A race condition on SMP systems allows local users to cause a denial of service (null dereference) by causing a connection timer to expire while the connection table is being flushed before the appropriate lock is acquired. - CVE-2005-3275 An error in the NAT code allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) by causing two packets for the same protocol to be NATed at the same time, which leads to memory corruption. - CVE-2005-3276 A missing memory cleanup in the thread handling routines before copying data into userspace allows a user process to obtain sensitive information. This update also contains a number of corrections for issues that turned out to have no security implication afterwards. last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 22788 published 2006-10-14 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2006-2019 Tenable Network Security, Inc. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/22788 title Debian DSA-922-1 : kernel-source-2.6.8 - several vulnerabilities NASL family Red Hat Local Security Checks NASL id REDHAT-RHSA-2005-514.NASL description Updated kernel packages are now available as part of ongoing support and maintenance of Red Hat Enterprise Linux version 4.
